Air Force Handbook: 108th Congress First Session

Abstract

The United States Air Force remains the preeminent air and space force in the world today. Born from the ingenuity of the Wright Brothers a century ago, we continue to evolve by capitalizing on the innate creativity and innovation of our airmen. As our vision is limitless, we will pursue every avenue and integrate with every Service, to secure preeminent capabilities for future joint warfighting. Today's international security environment presents daunting, but surmountable obstacles to America's military forces. With steadfast resolve, unrelenting effort and critical congressional patronage, the Air Force faces these challenges with continued confidence. In coalition with ground, naval and marine forces, we will continue to ensure America's security and its national interests by delivering unmatched air and space capabilities to the joint battlefield in whatever means, at whatever time, and in whatever manner is required. As a resource for the Members of the 108th Congress, this handbook features a convenient almanac format while outlining a selection of some of your Air Force's major priorities. In conjunction with the 2003 Air Force Posture Statement, we hope you find it useful to understand our vision for the future. As always, we remain eager to discuss our strategy for securing unprecedented air and space capabilities for the United States.
